Who Is The Brooke Hammerling of Dallas PR?

I was fascinated by this NYT story that ran in Sunday’s paper. (Yes, I’m now linking to NYT stories to talk about Dallas. Consider me the heir to Tall Paul.) It’s ostensibly about how public relations pros, especially in the tech fields, are using social media instead of traditional media. But it’s really about the kinda hot-ish San Fran PR maven Brooke Hammerling, and how she is the conduit to everyone who is anyone in both old-school and new-school tech media. Which got me to wondering: Is there a Dallas equivalent? Is there someone who can get anyone on the phone – everyone from A (Hugh Aynesworth) to Z (Bill Zeeble) on the old-school list, as well as our social media “influencers.” Taking email (pouring a 40 for comments) suggestions now.
